Default TBSS - 3-4 Clutch Replacments Recommnedations?

I have a '06 TBSS with just over 400RWHP that gets a 150hp spray occasionally. After recently rebuilding the trans at 35k miles on the stock set-up with no problems to upgrade the internals about 6k miles ago, my 3-4 clutches have now gone to the trans gods. I am looking for recommnedations on clutch brand, set-up and a vendor for the clutch replacements. I have heard nothing but good things on the Borg Warner clutches on here, and mixed reviews on the Z-pack? It is a daily driver with a few strip visits each year and have limited knowledge on trans set-ups. Any help someone could provide would be greatly appreciated.

I like the Borg setup. We use an eight clutch setup using the 4l65e frictions and .078 steels. Keep in mind a clutch is what it is. If the hydraulics's of the unit are not correct, no clutch is better than another. Vince

I like the ZPACK and More recently we have been working with the RAYBESTOS STAGE 1 sets and these to are showing out really well they replaced the blues in our level 3. But as Vince mentioned the hydraulics are really far more important than the clutch material if they are not right no clutch no matter how expensive or popular will survive.

I've ran the Z-pak for over a year now and they still looked brand new when I replaced the input drum I broke about a month ago...
